PROJECT LIFE FOR YOU!!

Hands up if you have piles of photos lying around in boxes or they sit saved on your computer??? Yep, me too.  I have tried Scrapbooking.  I find it a complex process.  I never have the right products and I can’t seem to convey what I want.  It all just takes too much time. Well I think I have found the answer.  I certainly want to organise those piles of photos I have lying around.  Have you heard the buzz about Project Life? Stampin’ Up! have partnered with Becky Higgins to bring to us exclusive Project Life products to help you manage your memories in a simple, quick fashion.  Check this video out for more insight.

So if you want to get organised then you can start ordering your products FROM TODAY!! Don’t delay. Those piles of photos are not going to go away!

Head to my store here to check out the products that are available to order now.

Others will be available to order from July 1st and there will be more introduced over time.  Of course as Stampin’ Up! does best these products co-ordinate with all the Stampin’ Up! colours. Here’s a taste of just some of the products available now.

Introducing Project Life

I have just received some Project Life products so I need to get some of these photos sorted.  I hope to show you some pages over time.

Have a good day. 🙂

I KINDA LIKE “KINDA ECLECTIC”.

I know I said I would  post about my swaps I received and this is the second post today and still no swap photos.  I am getting there but I just had to show you this card I made yesterday.  I was really excited about it.  This is using a stamp set coming out in the new Catalogue called ‘Kinda Eclectic”. We received this at Convention last week and I just had to play with it yesterday. P1120747

I cut a window from the Whisper White card.  It would be easy with the Square Framelits but I didn’t have them with me at our stamp day yesterday.  I cut the square out using my Stampin’ Trimmer. This piece I then embossed using the Decorative Dots Embossing Folder. The starburst image in the window is stamped with Baked Brown Sugar Ink.  The butterflies are stamped with Crisp Canteloupe.  It is great that these fit the current Butterfly Punches (the Elegant Punch and the Bitty Butterfly Punch)!!! The leaf image I stamped in Pistachio Pudding and cut out freehand.  The Birthday greeting is from Apothecary Art and stamped in Baked Brown Sugar. I snipped the ends of the greeting piece into banners.  A little bling goes a long way to finish it off.

Hope you like this.  I can see lots of uses with this set.  I will play again soon. OK, I will show you my swaps next post. 🙂

HAPPY WATERCOLOR THANKS!

Just a quick post for you today.  We are heading off for the weekend to our Church Camp.  I get back Sunday and then get ready for Convention in Melbourne.  So much excitement!  I thought though I would show you these little Thank You cards I made for my lovely customers who have placed orders recently.  I do appreciate them. 🙂

I have used the set ‘Happy Watercolor’ from the Occasions Catalogue.  I can’t believe this set is not in the upcoming catalogue.  So if you want this set you better grab it now!!

P1110979

This is just a simple, quick card.  They are 10cmx10cm cards (4″x4″).  I stamped the flower in Baked Brown Sugar and the the splodge over the flower either in Crisp Canteloupe or Pistachio Pudding.  I stamped the dots over the card and added the Thank You from the set.  A little bow with the Linen Thread finished it off.

Have a wonderful weekend.  I will stop by early next week and show you my swaps before I head to Melbourne.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WITH CHEVRONS!

When I made this card I wanted to show a different way of using the Scallop Tag Topper Punch. This is such a versatile punch.  With a strip of Whisper White card you can punch both ends of the strip and create fancy “holes” for your ribbon to thread through.  I was really trying to come up with a fancy term for these little “holes” but there was nothing!!!  Anyway, you get the idea.

P1110646

I sponged around the tag with Summer Starfruit. The greeting is from ‘Perfectly Penned’. After threading through some Summer Starfruit Stitched Satin ribbon I layered it all on a piece of DSP from Birthday Basics and layered this on a Summer Starfruit card mat.  Then it was all adhered to a Raspberry Ripple Card base.  I punched out some chevrons with the Chevron Border punch from Raspberry Ripple, Summer Starfruit and Gumball Green.

Now these colours will be retiring very soon.  I would suggest stocking up NOW on the card, ink, ink refills and ribbon.  They go SO QUICKLY!!  Don’t wait until the retirement list is announced in a month or 2 to order them because I wouldn’t like you to miss out.

School holidays at the moment.  Although we haven’t gone away anywhere it has been a nice family time together but there has not been a lot of stamping time. I just sneak a little time here and there. I am working away at my Convention swaps which is just one month away.  YAY!! You will have to wait to see these swaps though.  Let me just say, why do I always choose involved cards to make as my swaps!!!

Have a great day/night wherever you are on this lovely planet 🙂
